Seems there are some custom kernel patches from Ubuntu that are now required for 10.04 and newer to boot properly because of udev, plymouth, mountall, and ureadahead changes. I have tried the latest development snapshot and the release version of colinux. I'm having the same problems detailed here: http://www.linode.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5522 None of the Linode solutions resolve the problem. There is a Ubuntu bug report here where lots of people with custom kernels are having the same issues: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/571258 It's easy to reproduce the issue using this guide to create a maverick image: http://www.tekcited.net/colinux-create-an-ubuntu-image-from-scratch I could also provide the image if needed. It's around 70MB. |

I just tried the new 11.04 (natty) and it works. |

so it seems the linode fixes do work it's just that the one I was following has a typo: http://library.linode.com/troubleshooting/upgrade-to-ubuntu-10.10-maverick should be: dev /dev tmpfs rw 0 0 NOT devtmpfs. Everything else is correct. |
